Hi,

I understand you want to fix it in 9.1. The reason that I was using 8.1 is that 
I want to see how injection works there, to then somehow clone this to a 
distribution based on 8.1 which does not support injection. But I can install 
9.1 alongside to test an updated driver in the future for sure.

The hardware is capable of injection, listed at the aircrack-ng website as a 
recommendation etc.

Is it complicated to add ahdemo support?
